Deuteronomy 2:8 - Forerunner Commentary

Deuteronomy 2:8

6 You shall buy food from them with money, that you may eat; and you shall also buy water from them with money, that you may drink.

7 “For the Lord your God has blessed you in all the work of your hand. He knows your¹ trudging through this great wilderness. ^aThese forty years the Lord your God has been with you; you have lacked nothing.” ’

8 “And when we passed beyond our brethren, the descendants of Esau who dwell in Seir, away from the road of the plain, away from ^aElath and Ezion Geber, we ^bturned and passed by way of the Wilderness of Moab.

9 Then the Lord said to me, ‘Do not harass Moab, nor contend with them in battle, for I will not give you any of their land as a possession, because I have given ^aAr to ^bthe descendants of Lot as a possession.’ ”

10 ^a(The Emim had dwelt there in times past, a people as great and numerous and tall as ^bthe Anakim.

11 They were also regarded as¹ giants, like the Anakim, but the Moabites call them Emim.
